Stepless motorcycle grip heating regulator

I have now successfully completed my motorcycle grip heating controller project.

I converted an LED dimmer for my purposes, the controllers are available online for little money.

These are designed for 12V and up to 8 A current.

I replaced the existing 1K Ohm potentiometer on the regulator with one with a switch, but the switch cannot switch this high current.

I therefore interrupted the supply to the control electronics behind the diode on the circuit board and bridged it with the switch so that only the control electronics are switched.

A control LED with a 560 Ohm series resistor is installed for this purpose.

The connections can be seen in the photo.

Heated grips are from Daytona, these have 60 watts and are connected in parallel to the controller.

The whole thing is then connected to 12V via the ignition lock at the connection for the horn (is separately fused on the Suzuki).

Works perfectly and can be regulated continuously.

I have now successfully completed my project Motorcycle Handle Heating Controller.

I have rebuilt an LED dimmer for the purposes of the rules, the regulators are available on the net for a small fee.

These are designed for 12V and 8A current.

On the controller, I have exchanged the existing 1K ohm potentiometer for one with a switch, but the switch can not switch this high current.

Therefore, I have interrupted the supply of the control electronics behind the diode on the board and bridged with the switch, so that only the control electronics is switched.

For this purpose, a control LED with resistor 560 ohm installed.

The connections can be seen in the photo.

Heated handles are from Daytona, these have 60 watts and are connected in parallel to the regulator.

The whole thing then connected to 12V via the ignition lock on the connection for the horn (is separately secured on the Suzuki).

Works perfectly and can be infinitely adjusted.
